Division and Modulus

Modulus(%) is a number that remains when you divide something by a number.
So, if you do 2 % 2, the answer would be 0 since there is no remainder.

EX.
2 % 1 = 0 --> 1 goes into 2 perfectly with no remainder so it return 0
2 % 3 = 2 --> 3 does not go into 2 at all, so it just returns 2
5 % 2 = 1 --> 2 goes into 5 two times, and gives remainder of 1, so it returns 1
6 % 4 = 2 --> 4 goes into 6 once, and gives remainder of 2, so it returns 2

Division( / ) is the same method that we use in math except that in computer science, it's necessary
to distinguish between a double and a integer.
Double is a number with a decimal point.
Int (integer) is a number with no decimal point.

If you divide an int by an int, the answer would be an int.
If you divide an int by a double, the answer would be a double.
If you divide a double by an int, the answer would be a double.
If you divide a double by a double, the answer would be a double. (These only apply when the numbers don't divide up perfectly.)
If the two numbers you are dividing are both integers, the answer would always be an int.

               //You can not put a double number here. It cause an error (loss of precision).
        y = 1.2;
 
        System.out.println(y/x); //This would print out the result of
                                 // 2 / 1.2 which will be 0.6
    }
